How does the medullary cavity compare with the marrow i the spaces of the spongy bone?

The medullary cavity, located within the long bones, is a central hollow space that primarily contains yellow bone marrow, which is rich in fat and serves as an energy reserve. In contrast, the spaces within spongy bone, or trabecular bone, are filled with red bone marrow, which is crucial for hematopoiesis, the production of blood cells. While both types of marrow are involved in different functions, the medullary cavity is more associated with storage, whereas the spongy bone is primarily involved in blood cell formation.
